I traded my NJ T-shirt for this one!
I am looking forward to getting home and filling in some information to go along with these pictures. There hasnt been enough time so far. We were staying with a man who is 100% Native American and a woman who is 100% guatemalan. Couldnt ask for better insiders.

The first thing we did was find a real cup of coffee in a near by town call Batesville. Gudruns new Myspace friend
Mona
met us at the coffee shop.
Thank God
After a few lattes we headed to the country store in nearby Cushman to drop off my car. We piled into Monas giant truck for some wild terrain. She was going to take us to the only free cave in the area. and not many people know about this cave. Its called the blowing cave because there is a sixty foot waterfall totaly hidden from view a mile or so back into the cave. Most of the time you can feel the strong wind that it creates blowing out of the cave.
Our First View of the Cave
As we walked in and I snapped some pictures Mona asked me if I believed in ORBS! I said " I dont NOT believe in them". SHE said
"Well....just wait until you develope that film."

This building was built stone by stone by a woman. The amazing thing is that she started building it when she was 87 years old.
The inside of this church is built entirely out of cedar, they say its old as shit but, coming from Philadelphia their "so called old" just doesnt seem so old to me.
This is a (creepy) school house that is abandoned and looks like it has been for a super long time. The window is wide open (this pic is taken through the open window) but for some reason all the desks are still there! We stopped to see a fossil of a scorpion that was in one of the stones that make up the foundation but someone stole it.
This is a river that flows from the 10th largest spring (mammoth spring) in the world producing 9.78 million gallons of water per hour. I cant seem to find a list of the other top nine anywhere. If you come across it let us know.
